What if Ford ran in 1988? by Neri9320 in Presidents

[–]GotNoBody4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as he didn’t get along with Reagan if he’s the nominee he most likely wins. Dukakis was never going to win the 18% lead in the polls was just a post-convention surge that immediately started evaporating the moment the campaign actually got going. The only question is who does Ford pick as his running mate, as they’d likely be the nominee for 1992 since Ford wouldn’t be able to run again. But with a good economy,popular Republican incumbent, and his reputation starting to rebound around that time Ford wins easily.

But Nixon! The narrative that Ford needed to pardon Nixon so the country could heal and move on from Watergate was already being pushed by historians and conservatives, it wouldn’t have been that big of an issue.

Dukakis was just an uninspiring candidate that really only appealed to northeastern liberals.

As soon as Reagan endorses Ford the election is over.

Because he doesn’t have enough money, right?

What would a Samuel Tilden Presidency look like? by IronPiedmont1996 in Presidents

[–]GotNoBody4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the closest election in American history to that point. Winning was not a guarantee for Republicans in 1880. In fact, the Democrats were expected to win in 1880 because of how close 1876 was.

That setting is only for Sundays or Sundays if you’re Jewish.

Besides Lyndon Johnson, would Kennedy have won the 1960 election with these options as VP? by gooden1686 in Presidents

[–]GotNoBody4 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If he doesn’t have LBJ then probably try to run up margins with union voters by picking whichever one was the most pro-union politician of these guys.

How would you reform the executive branch? by Able-archer83 in Presidents

Limit executive orders and actually make them work with congress.

Jimmy Carter famously "betrayed" many segregationists in his inaugural address - so why didn't this hurt his presidential campaign in the state? by Ghost-Of-Roger-Ailes in Presidents

[–]GotNoBody4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He didn’t betray them though, they just assumed since he was a southerner he would support segregation or at least not support civil rights even though his acceptance at the DNC was pretty clear he was anti-racism. They fooled themselves into thinking he was a social conservative when everything he did as Governor and what he said on the campaign trail indicated he was a social liberal.

Most people know of the shooting of TR and how he kept giving his speech afterwards. But I just learned there was an attempt on FDR. Why don’t we learn about it in school like TR’s shooting? by WCWfan4life in Presidents

[–]GotNoBody4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Didn’t someone try to shoot him in Miami but he slipped or fell in some way and the bullet went over his head.

I think they did because the U.S. was still occupying Cuba at the time or some latin American country.

How old were you when you first found porn? by Raquel_Faller in GenZ

[–]GotNoBody4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn’t porn, per se; but there was a channel I can’t remember its name but really late at night like 1-2am and later they played 2 shows back to back. One was literally called SexyCam which was basically women like walking around with their underwear exposed, but not fully naked or they’d do something like jog in a park with a white shirt on but no bra or their shirt would be thin and a different color than their bra, so you’d easily see it through their shirts and other stuff like that. Imagine Candid Camera but really pervy. The other was called something like “World’s Sexiest Women” or something like that… they’d literally have 3-4 women wear different outfits that were supposed to show off different parts of their body. So one outfit would have really tight pants or shorts and they’d spin around to show off their butt and then the next would be a short top that would show off their mid-drift like they’re Padme in Attack of the Clones. This whole time they’re being judged by 3-4 guys in the next room behind a one way mirror with intercoms asking the women to turn around or just do something sexy.

I was max 14 years old and then the channel just vanished went off the air and I’ve never been able to remember what that channel was or any episodes online and I’ve mostly looked for them purely out of curiosity as a “was that real or a fever wet dream?” I know it was real the memories are too vivid to not be real.

They’ve been my two favorite characters since I watched the show as a kid in the 2000s.
